If we were gambling men we would have put money on FIFA 12 being the last FIFA to be released on PlayStation 2. How wrong we are: FIFA 13 has been confirmed for release on Sony’s ageing console, making it the first game to be announced for the system this year. A PSP version is also planned.

EA has no plans for Madden 13 on PlayStation 2, hence why we’re a little surprised. Well, surprised enough to write this article.

FIFA 12 on PlayStation 2 entered the individual formats chart at a fairly respectable #25. We don’t think we’ve ever seen a single copy for sale on the high street.
